Hi, Phenix are realy busy with new papers from 130 GeV. Here is another one on charge fluctuations. Honestly I have not seen the results at any of these conferences, but mayby those of you present at Jaipur, of INT would mind commenting or possibly pointing to a web page ? regards Flemming ------------------------------------------------------ Flemming Videbaek Physics Department Brookhaven National Laboratory tlf: 631-344-4106 fax 631-344-1334 e-mail: videbaek@bnl.gov ----- Original Message ----- From: "William A.
